“One memorable addition to the old mythology is due to this era,—the Christian fable. With what pains, and tears, and blood these centuries have woven this and added it to the mythology of mankind!

It would seem as if it were in the progress of our mythology to dethrone Jehovah, and crown Christ in his stead.”
